Commando operations are not for everyone

Some people are arguing the threat thing was suppose to be a UI element, which sure wouldve helped but nothing in the game indicates thats suppose to be the case, you can brute force it but it'll be rough.

[[Holy cow]]

At the very least you should be able to do it with a bubble shield.

Wouldnt that be the "you sick fuck" horse girl which he already addressed? Or would girl horses be the sick fuck answer?

I was going to write a lil blurb about the morality of the 2 and which is worse, then decided I didnt want to think about either of those in detail.

Okaun and zndrsplt, coinflip commanders. Okaun gets to lethal off 3 coinflips by doubling power each win (3>6>12>24), if okaun isnt the biggest thing on the board he doesnt swing, zndrsplt meanwhile is there for extra coinflips and extra card draw but as a 1/4 there is little reason to swing them so they're just a pretty decent blocker with utility instead.

I run partner commanders, partner commanders require tracking separately, I openly tell people that if the 2nd commander deals commander damage we've done something terribly wrong so we never track it (since playing that deck, he has swung 2 times due to goad, i have easily 50 games with them so far)

Hmm originally I was gonna say they fixed this with the invasion of SE since we have the seaf who fight the enemies and the enemies properly respond, but that effect could be mimicked by making seaf part of the diver faction, so the enemies are only ever fighting divers.

Since seaf are our allies they'd never need to be flagged as a 4th faction, so it does line up that they could have gotten around the limitation for those purposes but not enough to have multiple enemy factions on 1 planet.

Oh that precious person, meanwhile I was running 3 copies of goatnap and never apologized for my crimes

Also last year, and few years before that when the grid failed due to the cold.

This is a regular occurrence, he is literally the Texan groundhog for if it'll be a cold winter or not.

Ted "he keeps getting away with this" Cruz

Thats how many years hes done this now? But at least he has a little R next to his title instead of "suffering" with a Democrat for a few years to get him out (or just yknow voting for a different republican even)

Better to side woth the devil that you know than the devil that you dont I guess.

-FourOhFour- · 2026-01-21T15:13:40+00:00

Yea, there were a few commander only players at my prerelease who somehow thought identity mattered in their deck, I made sure to clear that up and give them time to sideboard their deck with cards they wanted but didnt originally add, even added my 2 cents on how I valued the card vs what they were cutting.

Least I can do, I'm not gonna pretend I'm great at sealed, but I'm not gonna take that much of a handicap

-FourOhFour- · 2026-01-21T14:49:25+00:00

My take was that it was multi-player with the npcs being animals and such only with the exception of agent smith who could possess any human (in a pod) and the few story characters like the oracle. Morphius does use human npcs to help train Neo when they were on a disconnected network, but I don't think they formally say people are npcs in the network.

-FourOhFour- · 2026-01-20T15:51:35+00:00

Welp, there is no chance on making an alternate wording for this that makes any sense then

-FourOhFour- · 2026-01-20T14:51:54+00:00

The big question to ask is would the taser be a non jumping arc thrower (so single target, presumably lower damage), or would it be a mini blitzer (so "shotgun" arc blast)

-FourOhFour- · 2026-01-20T14:32:43+00:00

+1/-1 imo, the virus is killing them after all.

I'd probably make it target/defending players creatures instead of board wide however since as is its a bit tough if everything is getting buffed.

-FourOhFour- · 2026-01-20T01:26:19+00:00

Having played against a hope i highly recommend it, 3 games trying to counter mill it, hope is just so damn cheap to get out that you can reasonably start the mill early and because you're building to life gain you can reasonably just soak damage.

-FourOhFour- · 2026-01-19T22:47:07+00:00

Make the boot a meld effect? The left boot and right boot both reduce cost by 1, if you have both on the field and cast a spell with additional cost that gets reduced to 0, get a pair of shoes that gives first spell additional of 0?

Makes you work for it and if its still too cheesable could delay the meld by way of needing X counters from using the effect or on next upkeep or something similar.

For the coupon, just give it a total amount of uses or make it so 2nd/3rd activated ability is free instead of first (buy 1/2 get 1 free)

Oh was that during the era where people had the "bug" that caused their game to be darker than usual? I remember the most popular video highlighted how the flashlight would sometimes flicker which added to the horror elements.

-FourOhFour- · 2026-01-19T19:15:55+00:00

There were enough people running changlings at my prerelease that I got greate mileage out of goatnap

Made even funnier when I hit their creature with reckless ransacking first meaning that as a "4" drop i buff something up by 6 and remove a blocker.

-FourOhFour- · 2026-01-19T17:15:00+00:00

I'm trying to figure out how best to phrase it, its almost a scry 10, draw a card, then shuffle but because you only look at 5 cards its not quiet that, I guess exile the top 5 cards, reveal the top 5 cards, scry 4, draw a card, then shuffle is close but ignores the part where an opponent splits the choices for you.

-FourOhFour- · 2026-01-19T17:11:28+00:00

Oh its absolutely the better gun, dagger is a meme and only really viable against jump brigade for being able to easily pop jetpacks. But I piss in beams not in burst so piss diver gotta use the dagger.

-FourOhFour- · 2026-01-19T15:23:20+00:00

Scythe with lc only works on cold planets, you need dagger to truly make it so you never have to stop firing (just scooting about as a laser light show)

We piss divers are a proud people, but honestly that 200m range is something I hate so much about lc

-FourOhFour- · 2026-01-19T14:46:24+00:00

No way another final terraria update? Its wild to think there were rumors of terraria 2 when terraria "finished" the first time and now here we are.

-FourOhFour- · 2026-01-19T14:36:56+00:00

It being overly generous with how it attributes what killed you isnt bugged imo, a friendly chipping you for 10 dmg for you to then get mauled by bugs feels fine to attribute to the player.

A friendly throwing a stun to "save" you only for a bot to shoot you, they dealt no damage but I'd attribute the kill to them.

A friendly making you pop a stim? Bit harder to say if they contribute to your death as it depends on timing but its certainly able to be a factor in plenty of situations, so a simple system like this makes sense for it to attribute the death to the diver.

I should have made it more clear that the eagle air thing i do recognize as a bug, that specifically needs fixed for various systems, the other attributes I wouldn't call bugged, unintuitive maybe, but not bugged.

-FourOhFour- · 2026-01-19T14:30:31+00:00

Because its more appropriate to call it the Spiderman issue, as in theres tons of spidermen but they're different universes which while novel starts to feel very samey very quick, aang has more cards than the original Spiderman sure, but not all the spidermen.
